Juventus coach Conte plays down dodgy Lucio debut

Juventus coach Antonio Conte played down Lucio's scratchy debut in their 7-1 friendly win over Aygriville.

Lucio's first touch as a Juventus player gifted the amateur side a shock opening goal. He was making his first appearance for the club, as too was Kwadwo Asamoah.

"Lucio arrived just two days ago, has taken this trip across the ocean, so he needs to fit in, pick up the pace, but there will be time and we'll definitely be prepared," said Conte.
